MAGA world caught a sly snub from former President Barack Obama in a tongue-in-cheek post about the Super Bowl.

The Obama Foundation posted support of Bad Bunny ahead of his Super Bowl LX halftime show, sharing a clip on X Sunday that compiled all the times the 31-year-old Puerto Rican artist, real name Benito Martinez Ocasio, has appeared in Obama’s annual ‘Favorite Songs of the Year’ lists. The foundation captioned the video, “From one natural-born US citizen to another, have a great Benito Bowl!”

Obama, 64, was praised by followers for “trolling” President Donald Trump, after the current leader led the charge in attempting to smear Obama by calling his citizenship into question. On Thursday, Trump, 79, also shared a racist video of Barack and Michelle Obama depicted as apes—and has yet to apologize.

As late as 2017, a report from The New York Times cited an unnamed U.S. senator who “listened as the president revived his doubts about Mr. Obama’s birth certificate.” The insider added that Trump “has had a hard time letting go of his claim that Mr. Obama was not born in the United States.”

USA won a gold medal in Cortina, the best team won last night, and nobody paid attention to the orange asshole's tweets! It was a good day all around.
